Bone loss is a prevalent characteristic among people with HIV (PWH). We focused on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and osteoblasts, examining their susceptibility to different HIV strains (R5- and X4-tropic) and the subsequent ...
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is a protein kinase involved in neuronal homeostasis and development critical for neuronal survival. Besides, its deregulation is linked to neurodegenerative pathologies such as Alzheimer's ...
Gender inequality across the world has been associated with a higher risk to mental health problems and lower academic achievement in women compared to men. We also know that the brain is shaped by nurturing and adverse ...

Background : Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can be activated by different bacterial toxins. Lipopolysaccharides and Shiga Toxin (Stx) are the main toxins necessary for hemolytic uremic syndrome development. The main etiological ...
Iron deficiency (ID) has been shown to affect central nervous system (CNS) development and induce hypomyelination. Previous work from our laboratory in a gestational ID model showed that both oligodendrocyte (OLG) and ...

Background: Stromal adipocytes and tumor breast epithelial cells undergo a mutual metabolic adaptation within tumor microenvironment. Therefore, browning and lipolysis occur in cancer associated adipocytes (CAA). However, ...
Background: miR-137 is a microRNA involved in brain development, regulating neurogenesis and neuronal maturation. Genome-wide association studies have implicated miR-137 in schizophrenia risk but do not explain its involvement ...

Introduction: Cannabidiol (CBD), the main non-psychoactive cannabinoid of the Cannabis sativa plant, is a powerful antioxidant compound that in recent years has increased interest due to causes effects in a wide range of ...
Humanin (HN) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide with robust cytoprotective effects in many cell types. Although the administration of HN analogs has been proposed to treat degenerative diseases, its role in the pathogenesis ...
Brain states are frequently represented using a unidimensional scale measuring the richness of subjective experience (level of consciousness). This description assumes a mapping between the high-dimensional space of ...
